BOSTON – I am thrilled with this selection. Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are the ideal team to defeat Donald Trump and JD Vance and move this country forward.
If you want to see the difference between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, just look at the quality and character of the person they chose as their running mate. I’m a proud colleague of Governor Walz. Tim had a two decade career as a teacher and in the Army reserves before he became an elected official. He is a person of deep integrity and empathy. As Governor, Tim has been a champion for the working families of his state and brings a common-sense approach to getting things done for the people he serves. He will be an outstanding partner to Kamala Harris during this campaign and as her Vice President.
Kamala Harris and Tim Walz will build a country where people have the ability to not just get by, but get ahead. They will grow our economy, reduce the costs of housing and prescription drugs, and create jobs in every part of this country. They are the team we can trust to protect Social Security, Medicare, and the Affordable Care Act. And they will make sure every woman has access to the health care she needs.
The people of this country do not want to go back to the anger and division of Donald Trump. They want to move forward together with a sense of optimism and hope – and those are the values that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz represent. I am so excited to support this incredible ticket in this campaign and then help them move this country forward as the next President and Vice President of the United States.
